I work in a Gastroenterology office and I wrote this humorous card to give to the other departments of the hospital. Hope you enjoy it, too!

Santa's Dilemma!

The setting - the North Pole, The date - Christmas Eve,

The sleigh was packed and ready, But Santa Claus wouldn't leave,

"I will be seated for hours while round the world I fly."

"The pain will be sheer agony!" He then began to cry.

Rudolph pulled him aside to bestow his sound advice,

"There are two doctors in Logan, I've heard they're really nice.

I think they can help you," he said, his nose glowing,

"Now it's time to take off. We've got to get going."

So Santa relented, and climbed into the sleigh,

Sitting on a soft pillow - All night he did stay.

Now when they reached West Virginia - Logan, to be exact,

Rudolph said, "Don't be such a baby!" (You know he has no tact!)

They landed on the Kruger, Took the stairs down to 2nd floor,

(No one had a chimney, it was a must they use the door!)

Dr. Ferreira welcomed him to Gastro, As he poured him a nice drink.

"Try this Cherry flavored Colyte," he insisted with a wink.

"How about a Colon," said Dr. Haffar. "Or perhaps an EGD?"

Santa wailed, "All I want for Christmas is a hemorrhoidectomy!"

They sent him on the bus to Endo, Then they climbed into his sleigh,

They yelled "We're not on call though!" As they laughed and flew away!
